I was wondering why there was a whole 0.1V Droop . Just read a bit more while looking for the specific vdroop mod for this board and a recent thread on another forum (14th april 08) indicates that the latest BIOS fixes the VDroop problems for this board as long as load-line calibration is enabled. Gotta be worth a try.

UPDATE: BIOS 1013 seems to have fixed it and now showing as 1.488V (0.12 VDroop). It's enough to make me happy.
